ADLAI—"By the way Grever, where is your war record?" Grover, grinning—"I think you'll find it in the same pigeon hole with yours, Adlai."

THE New Albany Tribune offers to pay $10 to any one who will name an article on which the duty was advanced by the McKinley law and which was advanced in price since the passage of that law if said person will pay the Tribune $5 for every such article that has fallen in price.

CHARLES X. MATTHEWS who for a number of years was editor of the Shelbyville Republican, but lately with the Lafayette Herald has taken a position as one of the writers of the Nonconformist, the People's Party's paper at Indianapolis. Mr, Matthews has always been a Democrat when he voted, but a free lance in writing.

THE people of the Uuited States are not ready to abandon the present economic system under which they have prospered for so many years. Democrat success means free trade and wild cat banking. Mr. Cleveland is not as strong as he was four years ago. Harrison is stronger, and the business interests of the country are for the success of the Republican party.

PRESIDENT HARBISON'S administration, at the request of Samuel Gowpers, president of the American Federation of Labor has decided to appoint additional inspectors of immigration to prevent bringing the pauper laborers of Europe here to compete with American laborers. The Republican party believes in protecting both the laborer and his products. The Democrats are for free trade, pure and simple. It is especially simple all along che line. The American workmen will have no trouble about which party to support. They are for protection every time.

TIIE negroes are largely iu the majority in Alabama and if Jones, the present Democratic Governor, succeeds in making his small majority of about 5,000 stick, he will owe his election to the negto vote. Every county in which the majority of voters were white, cast a majority of its votes for S. F. Kolb the candidate of the Peoples party. Kolb claims that he was elected by from 30,000 to 40,000 majority but that the Democrat election boards in the black counties stuffed the ballot boxes, made false returns etc., to stcure an apparent majority for Jones. No doubt Kolf is correct but what will the People's party do? They probably will not submit to the Democratic dictation there or elsewhere any longer. The Kolb men propose to put an electoral ticket in the field and a candidate for congress in every district. If they do, it is good bye Grover in Alabama.

HUSKY WATTEIJSON, editor of the Louisville, Courier Journal and the father of I lie Democratic free trade platform at Chicago says in his paper, "Just as soon as tlnj Democrats get the power they will restore trio sugar duties". That would run sur ir up to its old price, and do the people want to pay those prices? This country lias not been able to produce but ten per cent of the sugar it consumes so all duty levied on sugar comes out of tbe pockets of the people. The Democrats would also put the duty on teas and coffees which cannot be produced in this country and they would be higher, all of which the people would pay. The Republicans believe in putting the duty on those things which can be produced in this country, and thus home competition brings the price down below in many instances the amount of the tariff alone, and they are opposed to a duty on sugar, tea, coffee etc., which only raises the price to the consumer. The Democrats favor the tea, coffee and sugar duty as it is strictly a revenue duty. People of hancock county, which do you prefer, a Protective duty which builds up American industries or a Revenue duty which takes money out of your pocket. Think on these things.'

THK Louisville Courier Journal Henri Watterson's paper, &iys to protection Democrats, "Your room is better than your company,'' In this State Jesse Millett, editor and proprietor of the Elwood Free Press, and A. J. Kitt, editor of the Goodland Herald, both Democratic papers, have come over to the Republican party, and many others are coining who prefer American to English supremacy.

WITH the "surplus" exhausted, the "rascals" all turned out, the "books" examined, "McKinley prices" the lowest ever known, the "Billion-dollar Congress" thrown into the shade by its more than billion-dollar successor, the country doing a bigger business, both at home and abroad, than ever known before—with all this the free traders are hard up for ammunition this year.—New Haven Leader.

HIOH taxes are like the high fences about the Homestead mills. Both serve the team of protection and alike, according to Republican doctrine, purport to regulate American wages.—Richmond Independent. /f," i"

The Richmond Independent, the oldest daily and foi years the leading paper in Richmond has suspended. They lost their prestige by too much kicking.— Greenfield Herald.

The Herald is right about kicking not being popular. It brings disaster. Knowing these things why then does the Herald and so many other Democratic papers continue their everlasting kicking about American protection. Is not America and the Americans building up and increasing in prosperity? What other nation can compare with us? Mr. Herald take your own medicine, don't be a kicker. Kicking don't pay.

SOMETIMES you hear a Democrat say that Whitelaw Reid's New York Tribune is a non-union office. It is, and has been for months a union office. The Democrats are the men who are having trouble about non-union offices. All the nonunion newspapers in New York city are Democratic. They include the powerful Staats Zeitung, Evening Post and Brooklyn Eagle.

The leading Democratic paper of Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia Record, is also opposed to organized labor, as also are the Buffalo Courier and the Louisville Courier Journal, owned and edited by Mr. Watterson, the free trade leader and the famous writer of Democratic platforms. With the non-uuiou newspapers supporting Cleveland, a free trade candidate, workingmen will not be very enthusiastic for the Democrat ticket.

THOMAS WATSON, a congressman from Georgia and a member of the People's Party arraigns the present overwhelmingly Democratic Congress as follows: "There is nothing more singular than the infatuation of a system which has been weighed aud found wanting, and which hangs over the sentence of doom. Belshazzar is repeated at every epoch, and wherever the mad king reaches the last evening on earth his feast ii certain to be had. Revelry, and wine and music within the tread of Cyrus and his Persians without. The pampered aristocrats will listeu to no warning until Daniel strides into the hall aud the laugh of tbe voluptuary freezes on the lips of the quaking coward.

The Congress now sitting is one illustration. Pledged to reform, they have not reformed pledged to economy, they have not economized pledged to legislate they have not legislated. Extravagance has been the order of the day. Absenteeism was never so pronounced. Lack of purpose was never so clear. Lack of common business prudence never more glaring.

Drunken members have reeled about the aisles—a disgrace to the Republic. Drunken speakers have debated grave issues on the floor and in the midst of maudlin ramblings have been heard to ask, "Mr. Speaker, where was I at?" Useless employes crowd every corridor. Useless expenditures pervade every department."

This language in Mr. Watson's People's Party campaign book was followed by tlje appointment of the celebrated "Jag Committee." The Democratic Committee after an investigation, whitewashed matters considerably but reported thatfeur members had been guilty of looking too long upon the wine when it was red. Shame on such a House.

"TARIFF REFORM" is the shibboleth with which some Democrats attempt to conjure with and stir up enthusiasm. The advertisement of the Democratic rally in this city is headed "Tariff Reform," and is l'alse upon its face. The Democrat party is making the campaign, not for a reform of the tariff, for they declare in their Chicago platform upon which tlie candidates must stand or fall, that the protective tariff is unconstitutional. Anything that is unconstitutional should not be reformed but abolished. It it is unconstitutional that settles the question, .t should not be taken iu any quantity because if it is wrong it is wrong, and no matter how small the dose it would be wrong still. The reason tlic Democrat party does not succeed, is because il docs not have or deserve to have the confideuce of the people. Its promises arc wouderfully liberal, but its performances IK-ver amount to anything. With a two-thirds majority in Congress the past session, they accomplished no good. Against the Mckinley Bill they did nothing for the free coinage of silver, the bill was killed the house of its friends: against the Billion dollar Congress, they appropriated $63,000,000 more beginning with such wonderful promises they failed utterly, and wound up by investigating charges of drunkeness which were proved on four of the members of the majority, and in attempting to beat the World's Eair appropriation, favored by all the patriotic people of the country, »in.l only Opposed by the Tammany tigers, southern bulldozers and their northern sympathizers. The fact is the Democrat party I lms no

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN. THURSDAY. AUGUST 11, 1892

fixed national principles except the leaders all want office, and as office seekers who promise everything and perform nothing, they do not have the confidence of the people. The Republican party, on the other hand, is a party of performance. It lays down its principles and then has the courage to press those principles to the end and place them on the statute books as laws. The people turn with confidence to the Grand Old Republican Party that has the power and the will to carry out its promises enact them into laws, enforce them and safely guide the steps of a grand and glorious nation. The people have trusted the Republican party for a third of a century and the indications are that it will overwhelmingly be continued in power because it deserves to be.

THE Democratic platform says: "We denounce Republican protection as a fraud." There is no way in which that can be misconstrued or distorted. It is a threat to the whole existing economic condition of the nation. Such being the case Grover Cleveland knows that no man who stands on it can hope to be elected President of the United States. So he seeks to "modify" it. The reason is exactly the same that led tbe Democratic House of Representatives from passing the free silver bill, and a free lumber bill, and a free irou ore bill, namely, a truckling cowardice about openly declaring a policy to the people. It is accompanied by exactly the same reservation as that made by the house—"Wait until after the election." If the Democrats are successful they propose to play smash "after the election."

Pithy. Pointed utid Per.iuent. The Standard Oil Company is apparently furnishing the lubricants for the Democratic campaign.

How thankful those who follow Congressional proceedings ought to be that there is only one Holman.

The Democrat* are not saying so much about the Homestead affair since they fouLd out the wages paid the strikers.

Ex-Speaker Reed's idea of the Democratic rallying cry, "The Prophet aud the ballot box, both stuffed," is good enough to pass around.

There is little doubt that Democratic fiillbustering in the House against the World's Fair appropriation made many Republican votes.

A New York paper says ex-Secretary Bayard is taking a, vwatiou. Yes, and it i3 a long one, too he's been taking it ever since the 4th of March, 1889.

Perhaps Mr. Cleveland has made a contract to I ornish some enterprising publisher with copy for a book to be called "The Candidate's lieady Letter-writer."

Congressman Tom Watson, of Georgia, charges that useless employes crowd every corridor of the Democratic House. Yes, aud some of them occupy chairs on the iloor.

According to scientists the proper term for crazy people is heliotic, and not lunatic. We had been under the impression that the term heliotic belonged exclusively to the Hill Democrats.

The United States Supreme Court has long ago decided that a protective tariff was constitutional, but a litt-e thing like that has no effect upon the pop-gun Democrats who say it is unconstitutional.

Of course Canada doesn't like retaliation. No one expected her to. There is only one way she can escape it, however, and that is to treat Uncle Sam's boys just as she does her own, so far as navigation laws are concerned.

It may be that the Democrats who engineered the House resolution for an investigation of the Reading railroad coal trust really want the facts and then again it may be that only a big campaign contribution is wanted.

The good points of the last House of Representatives, which was Republican, have been strongly brought out by the entire lack of good points in the present House, which has made the defeat of the Democratic party a certainty.

Congressman Oates, of Alabama, or Young man afraid-to-make-a-report, as he has been called since he announced that his committee, which went to Homestead to investigate, would make no report until the next session of Congress, has 'assumed a new role—Congressional jag expert.

The Democratic House displayed its respect for labor when it deliberately struck out the Senate amendment to the Sundry Civil bill providing for the purchase of a site for a new government printing office at Washington. About 3,000 men and women daily endanger their lives by working iu the old building.

Secretary Elkins very rightly revoked the "keep-off-the-grass" order issued by the army officer iu charge of the public buildings and grounds at Washington, to prevent the holding of G. A. R. reunions on the "White lot." The veterans who will attend the encampment at Washing ton have rights which eveu an army officer who never saw the face of the enemy must respect. (Suppose they do spoil the grass whose grass is it anyway?

Readers of the cable news have long ago discovered that 'Bismarck in office, and Bismarck out of office are two very different individuals. In office he believed in the strong arm of the government beiug stretched out to throttle individual opinions wherever tiiey cropped out out of office lie believes iu the right of tbe individual to express opinions, no matter whose toes they may tread ou, all of which shows that the so called man of "blood and iron" is very, very human after all.
